One of these days we have to have a little talk... :P

And well done Bunyip, for making my 'ooshawoosha, innat sweet!' remark into something completely different and somehow faintly disturbing :)

Good work, that man!

I get what you mean, BK, about misconstrued remarks. I make a reference to the coffee spilt whilst getting into bed with a good book, a mug of coffee and a handful of chocolate. Invariably some coffee spills.

What else could I have been referring to?

Nice save....

What about hot chocolate?

I have been informed that my life will be in peril should I ever drink coffee again. Although sugar is almost as good. Everyone starts moving in slow motion if I have enough...

Just sweeten the coffee with Prozac.

lol, I'm proud to say that I can drink buckets of the stuff and the only effect is that I concentrate more on what I'm doing. None of this pinging off the walls for me! At least, no more than usual.

Sadly I'm off coffee too, at work it got to the point where I was going beat someone with a big air gun for standing there and ignoring me, so I thought I'd try cutting out coffee for a while, much calmer now, and tell problem people that they are now part of the problem, so move, and only get violent urges when it's something really big.

Oh, violent urges are a side effect?

Maybe I need to review my stance on all those bottles of Red Eye...

We pass this way but once (misconstrue that if you can) so the 'violent urges' are merely your real persona telling you that you don't have enough time left to put up with the claptrap of others and if they don't push off reality will strike them with a large heavy blunt object.

I am thinking of asking for the death penalty for people who do not move off smartly when the traffic lights go green.

Ah.... The New York second, the smallest unit of time in the multiverse. The time time between the lights going green and the person behind you hooting.

Kitten: I also do not need stimulants. Also the coffee is fun....

Ah, "The California Stop."

My father does it best: Stopping at a Stop Sign, without ever truly Coming To A Complete Stop.

He does it so well, the cops can't even catch him. It is amazing.

I can become hyper when tired... sometimes. Ok, maybe I picked up the thread at the wrong stage! (wet patch question, I mean! ^_^).

Never thought you were a missionary- great, now I can't stop thinking about the riddle with the cannibals & missionaries...

*blinks* missionary? "Now I'm slightly more confused than usual..." Is it too late to say that I'm nervous of missionaries?

If I may butt in, you do not have to worry about the wet spot if "you are on top of it"
